Chapter 268: The twisted melon is not sweet

After the village chief announced the completion of the breakup, Bai Xiaoming snorted coldly and left from the old mansion with his feet straight.

He walked very resolutely, and he didn't want to leave a single look.

As for what Bai Jinli said, he was indeed envious, jealous and hateful.

But he proudly believes that he will definitely get ahead in the future, and he will definitely be more beautiful than these people in the Bai family when the time comes.

After all, how could a person like him be attracted by the Bai family's petty profits?

What a joke.

After Bai Xiaoming left, the village chief also offered his farewell.

"Village Chief, go slowly! If you have nothing to do in the future, I will come often, and next time I will definitely entertain you with my father-in-law. Bai Jinli smiled and spoke.

"Don't bother, hehe, as the village chief, this is what should be done." The village chief smiled, silently wiped the sweat from his head, and left.

Don't think he didn't hear the threat in Bai Jinli's words.

Who is Bai Jinli's father-in-law? The big guy you can't mess with!

For a moment, he was indeed dazzled by wealth, but at this moment he was completely awake.

The Bai family is all devils, and he has forgotten what he just heard, and he doesn't know anything.

"Dad, mother, little sister, if it's okay, I'll go to the factory first." Bai Bai Qi squeezed out a smile and spoke.

"Second brother, you come with me, I want to talk to you." Bai Jinli stopped him.

"Dad, you talk to my mother for a while, I'll go out with my second brother for a while, and I'll be back in a while."

"Well, got it, Pear, you guys go." Old Man Bai waved his hand, and opened his mouth uneasily.

"Second child, if you want to open a little, the twisted melon is not sweet."

"I know, Dad." Bai Qi nodded.

"......" has left the hidden fire of the second fire.

What does this have to do with the twisted melon not being sweet?

And is this phrase used here?

"Second brother, let's go."

The two of them walked out of the door of the old house and walked casually along the road in the village.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that the two of them have walked and talked together so calmly.

"Second brother, do you blame me?"

"Little sister, what did you say. Xiao Ming is not the way he is now, and it is not your fault. ”

"Really?"

"Of course it's true...... Well, to be honest, I did blame you a little bit at first, but if you think about it, I didn't do my duty as a father and didn't teach them well, so I have no right to blame you. Bai Tianqi sighed.

"Well, you do have a bit of a responsibility for this, the son does not teach, the father is wrong. It's just that it doesn't help to say that now.

If you talk about responsibility, not only you, but also my mother and I have done wrong things before, which may have had some impact on my eldest nephew.

It's just that it was a thing of the past, and we can't do it all over again, we can only think about changing it from now on.

If the eldest nephew can let go of those thoughts in his heart, do you think that according to the current temper of my mother and me, I will still target him? Won't they treat Bai Meng and Bai Mo like they treat him?

Second brother, the road is all walked out by himself. Bai Xiaoming is already an adult, and after reading the books of sages for so many years, he should learn to distinguish between right and wrong.

Over the years, you have worked so hard to send him to school, secretly helped him behind his back, and thought about him wholeheartedly, if he really cares, he will not feel it, and he will not treat you like today.

Second brother, you have done a lot, it is Xiao Ming's choice to break off his family, we should respect him, as for the future, and look at the future. ”

"Well, I see." Bai Qi nodded.

"Second brother, I'll go back first, think about it yourself." After Bai Jinli finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Leaning on the tree next to the village, Bai Qi's mind flashed through the scenes of these years.

That's right, he did resent Mrs. Li and Bai Jinli for a moment.

If they hadn't dragged on and refused to send Xiao Ming to the academy to study, Xiao Ming would not have left home in a fit of anger and would not have come back for so many years.

If it weren't for Mrs. Li and Bai Jinli being so fierce to Xiao Ming back then, Xiao Ming would not have become what he is now.

But if you think about it carefully, although Mrs. Li is unreasonable, she is not too harsh on them.

It is not for nothing that there are people in the village who starve to death because they have no food, and it is not for nothing that there are people who do not have food to buy and sell their children.

Mrs. Li never mentioned this stubble.

It is not Mrs. Li's responsibility to send Bai Xiaoming to study, what qualifications does he have to blame?

According to what Lizi just said, he has secretly sent money to Xiao Ming over the years, in fact, Mrs. Li also knows, but she didn't say it.

Speaking of this, Bai Baiqi suddenly remembered something.

A few years ago, Bai Xiaoming just went to the academy, and when he hadn't received the task of copying books, he couldn't afford to pay the academy's bundles, and when he was worried, he picked up money from the basket where he was going to sell eggs in the town.

Now that I think about it, it wasn't an accident at all.

In fact, over the years, his father and mother have looked at nothing and looked unreasonable, but they have been secretly caring about them behind their backs.

It's just that in comparison, I pay more attention to my little sister.

Thinking about it, Bai Qi went farther and farther on the road of thinking about life......

Bai Jinli was talking to Bai Tianqi, and on the way back, she just passed by the door of Carpenter Tan's house, when she suddenly heard Tan Xiaohua's voice calling her.

"Sister Pear, is that you?"

"Little flower, it's me!"

Seeing Tan Xiaohua running out of the house, Bai Jinli stopped and looked back at her with a smile and nodded.

"Sister Pear, why don't you persuade my father, hey, my grandmother and I are about to be worried to death by my father!"

Tan Xiaohua sighed, her brows furrowed tightly, and her little face was full of anxiety and worry that did not match her age.

"What's wrong?"

"Sister Pear, I heard my grandmother scold my father, saying that he was afraid that his brain was kicked by a donkey. Hey, our family obviously didn't have a donkey before. ”

"......" Somehow, Bai Jinli inexplicably remembered that Li Manman was kicked in the head by a donkey.

"Your grandmother came to your house? Why did she say that? Bai Jinli grabbed the key and asked her.

"Well, that's a long story. Sister Pear, why don't we go to your house and talk, I'll ...... I want to drink your yogurt.

But don't worry, I didn't drink it for nothing, I also have a gift for you, you wait for me. ”

After speaking, Tan Xiaohua ran to her house in a hurry.

Not long after, she hurried out again, holding a small wooden monkey and a wooden cup in her arms.

The cup is a cylindrical cup with a wooden lid on it, and the lid is a particularly delicate and small monkey.

"Hehe, I heard Sister Meng say that you like monkeys, so I sent this to you with my father's extra wood.

Sister Pear, do you think this thing can be worth your yogurt? Tan Xiaohua handed the two things to her and looked up at her.

Her large, clear, watery eyes were full of anticipation and a hint of unease.

"Of course, Xiaohua, these two were carved by your own hands?" Bai Jinli took it and looked at it, and asked her in shock.

"Yes! I used to watch my dad do things when I was fine, and my dad was afraid that he would think I was annoyed by staring at him, so he handed me a few carving knives, and I carved and played with them. Tan Xiaohua said very casually.

"How old you were before, your father was relieved to give you a knife to play, it's really big." Bai Jinli couldn't help but smack her tongue.

"Hee-hee, Sister Pear, do you like what I gave you?"

"I like it very much, Xiaohua, this one you carved is so beautiful, you can change many bowls of yogurt."

"Really?" Tan Xiaohua looked surprised.

"yes, really."

"Great, Sister Pear, let's go to your house now."

"Okay, let's go."

"Wait a minute." After Tan Xiaohua said this, she ran to her door and shouted inside.

"Dad, grandma, I'm going to Sister Pear's house to play, and I'll be back in a while."

After speaking, he ran to Bai Jinli's side, took the initiative to help her pick up a wooden monkey in her hand, and then used her small hand to hold Bai Jinli's free hand.

When she arrived at the old house, Old Man Bai told her that Mrs. Li had just fallen asleep, and he planned to go to the factory to take care of it, and then left.

Hearing that Mrs. Li fell asleep, Tan Xiaohua turned down her voice very obediently.

"Xiaohua, you sit in my room for a while, and I'll serve you yogurt." led Tan Xiaohua to his bedroom, and Bai Jinli spoke.

"Uh-huh, yes." Tan Xiaohua looked at the layout of Bai Jinli's room very curiously, and nodded copedly.

When she brought the yogurt, Tan Xiaohua took it and thanked her, and then opened her mouth with a wink of bright eyes.

"Sister Pear, your home is really beautiful!"

"If you like it, come and play often."

"Eun." Tan Xiaohua nodded busily, and after drinking two sips of yogurt, she sat aside and returned to her previous sad appearance.

"What's the matter, Xiaohua, what are you worried about? Tell me about it. Bai Jinli asked.

"Sister Pear, my grandmother said that my father is afraid that he will be a bachelor for the rest of his life."

"Huh? Why? ”

"You may not know that my grandmother loves me the most, and she was worried that my father would not be able to take care of me, so she came to my house from her house to see me.

Then she told my father, "This will not work, and advised my father to find another woman, so that he can take care of me, otherwise she will take me to her house." ”

"And then?" Bai Jinli asked curiously.

I don't know why, when I thought of Carpenter Tan's temperament, Bai Jinli faintly felt that he must have made Xiaohua's grandmother unhappy.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been worried about Xiaohua like this.

"At first, my father disagreed, saying that he was fine alone, but my grandmother insisted on taking me away, and he couldn't help it, so he listened to my grandmother and went to see the widow Wang in the next village."

"Huh? Did your dad see you? ”

"See! Just yesterday, my grandmother specially asked someone to bring the widow to our house, saying that she would talk about the future. ”
